Incoming explosion for sure! Just not sure of the form. It'd certainly be nice to clear out the mountains of unnecessary complexity, which may sort of make it 'easier' to spin up apps, but just squanders computing power. Just using desktop app responsiveness as a proxy, it really feels like the most responsive time was just pre-Windows or early WinNT, and despite ever-increasing processing speed, cache, and RAM, the responsiveness just gets mushy. & config mgt almost takes more time than coding. I'm hoping that as Moore's law tapers off, we get somewhat forced back into valuing efficient systems. So, yes, when that nucleation site forms, it'll be nice, and a big burst of power! I'm sort of hoping that one part of it might take the form of greater power in the handhelds, pulling back some computing out of the cloud and onto a more independent old-desktop-style stand-alone high-capability machine, but I'm not holding my breath. I'd expect it'll still be tapping lots of big datasets/AI in the cloud... We can hope for fun times ahead!
